Adft. Gen. Drum,s R,nort.

Washington, Nov. S.-Adit.-t4ep,
Drum, in his annual report to the secre-
tary of war, states that the steadily in
creasipg interest manifested by the
militia of the states is evidenced by the
high percentage OF attendance at the
annual encampments and the generally
excellent military spirit of the troops.
With the liberal increase of a%pproprla-
tons made at the last session Of congress
it is earnestly hoped that the state
militia authorities will increase the oil
lowaDoe of ammunition aud foster and
develop the efficiency OF the rank and
file in target firing. He recommends the
establishment, during each encamp-
ment, OF An officers school for instruc-
ton in battalion drill and administra.
tien of the post. He also suggests the
advantage of holding weekly, during
the winter months, the non commission.
ed officers school tthe captain as in-
struotorl for instruction. Young Off
oers of the army could be spared during
the winter to report to the adjutant'
generals OF the states on application OF
the governors to aid in the instruction.

ZA#L ra
Chicago, Nov. S-The following let.
ser concerning the bombs were written
by Parsons last night:
It's q mares nest; a cansrd; q fake; o
pus mp job to create o sensation and
manufacture public prejudice. How in
the world could bombs get into Lingg's
cell unknown to those whose sole busi-
ness it Ii to see that no sneh things get
there? Incredible. They say these
bombs found in Lipga's cell. are seven
inches long and an inch in diameter,
and that there were four OF them. There
is no aperture in the wire gratings
through which such missiles could get
in. Or have the obliginR guards at the
inspection room been passing up bombs
to LipRg's cell. Remember our cells
we're searched about ..t..ree or four weeks
ago and the scrutiny i edonbled since;
nothing was found then. While it was
impossible for the bombs to get to Lingg
without the knowledge OF the officers,
it was not impossible that some OF She
many persons who have had already
access TO his cell put them there during
yesterday morning after he Yves taken

community who would not hesitate q
moment to put up such q job on the
anarchists. Lingg could have no use
for bombs in the Jail. 1t would be simply
impossible to get them without detec-
fion, Those bombs if they were really
found there, were put there by some
one whose business 1t was TO find them
there. They oould not get in his cell
in any other way. This lest sind" OF
the bombs is IN keeping with many
other fakes lately thrown upon the COM
Munity. The story is TO thin. Ii won'i

dy occurred at Hnnlingtown, Nd, place
OF 100 Inhabitants, five miles from Deep
Landing, on the Paiuxent river, and seven

was Edmund b. Coolidge, a farmer. On

barreled shot gun in his hand. Both barrels
were loaded. His wife noticed an angry
look on his face, and said to him Edward

Mrs. Coolidge jumped up from her chair,
and rushing at her husband, succeeded 10
wrenching the gun from his hand. Coolidge
then drew pistol from his pocket and shot
her twice. Both bullets took effect, and
would have caused her death, but to make

When he felt convinced that his wife was

down stairs to search for his wife's sister.
When he first entered The room she had
rushed out and taken refuge at the house Of

They would not 60, and he returned to

The Celebration i'm Philadelphia.

The Celebration III HNliauefphiaa'
PHILADELPHIA, Sept 16.-It is computed
that there are at least halfa million strang-
ers in the city, and during the military pa
rade to-day the streets were almost impas'
sable.
The reception rendered the President By
the business men was a success in every
particular. Upon the announcement of MIR.
Cleveland by President Comfy, of the Com
morcial Exchange, the cheering was vocife'
rous, and it was some moments before Mr..
Cleveland could be heard above the din.
After quiet had been secured he spoke in
firm and clear voice. He said
"I am glad to be here to day and have the
opportunity OF meeting so large represent
alton of the business men of Philadelphia.
It is we'll for US Eos to entirely forget the
claims of patriotism in tho rush OF business
life and such occasions as this are fraught
with great good to our common country.
The objects of good governme:. tend to in
ease the material prosperity Of the coun-
try. 1t has often occurred to me that in the
hurry and rush of business we are apt to
forget tho claims of good government. II
would be we'll if business men remember
that wholesome political sentiment 10
closely related to- business success. would
be glad to see little more of broad patrl
otto sentiment in the business world. 1t
would be we'll in striving for the success OF
the whole nation that man should some
times sacrifice his individual interests. To-
day we celebrate such n tridmph OF patriot
ism over selishness. Does any one doubt
to-day that the constitution of one hundred
years ago was well made and that the work
was we'll done? This same condition OF ei-
fairs, that is, sinking self in patriotism
would exist to- day if our business men would
cultivate wholesome, political sentiment
snd sometimes forget selfish and sordid l.
forests. I believe that nowhere can this
sentiment be better established thau among
] the alert, active, enterprising business men
Of Philadelphia"
After his speech Mr.. Cleveland announced
himself as being ready to meet the gentle
men present, ,and one by one they Wake
up the stops of the rostrum and grasped his
hand. After the reception the Presidential
party drove to the reviewing stand, at Broad
and Walnut streets, to witness the military
parade. Nearly thirty thousand Uniformed
soldiers passed in review before the Chief
Magistrate and the high officers of this end
other governments. Virginia was repre-
sented by Gov. Fitzhugh Lee and staff and
battalion of SEQ men.

The Yacht Race.

SANDY Hook, Sept. 16.-Another attempt
was made 10 day to sail the first of The
trial races between the sloops Maytiower
and Volunteer. The Scotch cutter Thistle
was all ready to follow the racers over The
course, which was twenty mics TO lee
ward and return. The starting signal was
given at lilo o'clock. The Volunteer
crossed the line at Hills and the May
flower at 11:14:5S. Both yachts started cfl
like race horss, with booms TO starboard
and spinnakers to port. The Thistle. though
not in the race, started two minutes after
the Mayflower. The Volunteer at 1l:3O
was leading by nearly three-qnarters OF
mile. The wind was then stiil from the
west.northwest and blowing 90 miles an
hour.
at 1915 p. M. the Volunteer WAS gaining
steadily on tho Mayhowsr. The Thistle
was fast falling behind. An interesting
clinch took pace between the Thistle and
the schooner N. L. Lockwood on the way
out to the lghtship, in which the Lock
wood showed that the Scotch cutters speed
is greatly overestimated. Tho Lock
wood at the start WAS milo
and a-half behind the Thistle. She
gradually overhaued the foreigner, until ii
naly, OFF the bar, both vessels were sailing
on even terms. There is no question bat
that the Thistle was sailed for ali she WA
worth, as her sails were full all the time.
at 1885 p. IN. tho Volunteer was two
miles ahead. but the May flower was To
windward. The Thistle had assumed third
place. The wind was from the northwest and
was falling slightly.
